Quote from: imtommygunn on July 06, 2024, 06:11:21 PMEngland basically play without a striker. How do they expect to win games like that.

You're mad in the head.

They're playing without a striker because:

a) they don't cross the ball, hit long passes, or hit through ball. So they might as well play Brian Potter up there if they just want someone to stand up front.

B) Bellingham is a lazy show pony **** who offers nothing in defence or build up play, so Kane is taking on most of the 10 duties to make up for him.

It's ridiculous that Southgate can't get a squad with these players to play better than they are. They are truly awful.

Kane playing worse than Ronaldo

Much like Ronaldo what does he offer for his team when not scoring?

I didn't say it was Kane's fault.

They are shite and make no substitutions. Worst is they may win this game.

1st half they were just about ok. He's now watched half an hour of this 2nd half and he's done nothing to change things. I don't think he knows how to.

Switzerland lead

Southgate no choice but to throw the shackles off now!

Looked like it could have been a penalty for a foul by Walker if the Swiss fella didn't get the toe on it at the back post.

1-1 just like that. Their first shot on target in the 80th minute.

Why do England never cross the ball?

They aren't Man City in terms of technical ability. Not even remotely close.

Their best approach is to make the game less about technique and more about pressure.

They're just bizarre to watch.

Shearer.. no one was getting on to the end of his balls!!

Captain Obvious · July 06, 2024, 06:49:22 PM

Another 30 minutes of watching these two boring teams in action.
